해방기 박인환 시의 현실 인식 변모 양상 - 「仁川港」, 「植民港의 밤」의 창작 배경 중심으로

Abstract

The study poses a question on the practices of the research on Park In-hwan and his works having been accessed in the context of thoughts that cannot coexist, such as modernism, sentimentalism, realism, and post colonialism. His literature possessed the characteristics of a transition period that were produced in the turbulence of emancipation and war. It should be taken into consideration that the precise and proper assessment of his work has been absent and/or delayed. The works of Park, therefore, need to be reconsidered in the perspective of école movement generational école movement, which actively adopted the Western culture. As such, the study examines how the spatial awareness formed through the indirect experiences from the poems of Park in the emancipation period reaches the contexts of post colonialistic tendency and resistance. Indeed, the immersion into the Western culture through reading in the extent to worship functioned as the taste that filled the intellectual deficiency and vacuum; based on such cultural worship without dividing the left or right, Park In-hwan also was a poet who led the “liberalism” of his literature and the contemporary. 「Incheon Harbor」 is especially a well-written piece of work that reveals the cultural and geographical awareness of Park at the time, which also presents the cultural and realistic perspective of the post-war generation. Through the study of the creation background of this poem, the point where Park’s “noble hobby” transformed itselfinto the element of anti-colonial and anti-imperialistic resistance of and where it all collapsed. In addition, through the reading of Park’s poems including 「A Night at the Harbor of a Colony」 and 「The Temperature of Roses」, the study examines Park’s realistic perspective, which used to be somewhat limited in the emancipation period, is passed down and transformed in a more refined form when he put together the 「SeonPoems」(1955).
